You don't need to underestimate the rest Nigeria players on the field, because Osimhen has been injured doesn't mean that Nigeria wouldn't be able to win Rwanda. Iwobi is the only player that has taken a good shot on target and I believe that the super eagles are capable of winning this match.
We have Lookman on the pitch, Nigeria is dominating the match and looking for a way to break the deadlock. The first half is over and it was a goalless draw. I believe that Nigeria will be able to get all three points in this game. However, I didn't bet on Nigeria.
We don't have to underrate the remaining players on the pitch. But we are aware that Victor Osimhen is the major threat to Ugandan defenders. His absence will give the visitors more chances and confidence to come out and play. Before now, they were cautious because he could maximize any slight opportunity. I have lost hope in the Super Eagles qualifying for the World Cup. If this game ends in a draw, our hope will become dimmer. Let's hope that they will hold on to this one-goal lead.
The Super Eagles finally got all three points because their visitors was unable to find the back of the net till the match was over. However, I expected more than one goal in this match with the level of Super Eagle performance throughout the match. Rwanda goalie made quite some good saves to deny Nigeria their second goal. Arokodare goal put smiles on Nigerians face as they hope to win South Africa in their next match.
When the match started I was hopeful that Nigeria will win there match however later I started thinking they may draw the match, to be honest I'm not also happy about the match I was thinking Nigeria will win with more goals but they did not however as long as they have won and counted their point in full that is okay, for Nigeria to qualify for this world cup it will only take the grace of God, I really don't know what is happening to Nigeria team they have a lot of good and world class players but they always fine it difficult to win their matches, I think there problem right now is the coach they need a very good coach to place there players in good position, I believe there players are always ready to perform very well but they just need good positioning, as for winning South Africa I really don't think Nigeria can do that with the kind of performance I saw today they may just end up drawing the match but I just pray they win the match.
Congratulations to Nigeria super eagles for the victory today.
